NFL haters please refrain from commenting. I thought this interesting. It is difficult, in any endeavor, to sustain such excellence over such a long period. Especially in such a dynamic and fluid field such as professional sports.

Which QB has the most wins in the Bills Ralph Wilson Stadium in the last 20 years?

Its not a Bills QB - its Tom Brady.

A shorter ‘dynasty’ was the Bill’s 4 consecutive Super Bowls. A record that will never be beat. Would have been nice to win one of them.

One of the best Super Bowls ever was when a wild card team, the NY Giants, beat NE, spoiling what would have been a perfect season. It was glorious, just like Trump busting the shoo-in Hillary.

Interesting article, but this bit is nonsense - bend but don't break is a well established defensive strategy (whether it's a sound one is a different question):

"bend-but-don't-break defense. Belichick doesn't tell his defense to suddenly figure things out in the red zone because that doesn't make any sense. Great defenses are great all over the field."

Myth: Belichick causes the headsets of opposing teams to become disabled.

I have been a Patriots fan since 1974. It was really really difficult to be a fan in those days. They were only just considered an NFL team. Oh there were some bright spots here and there but mostly just dismal for the next 26 years. Then everything changed. I have been wallowing in Patriots victories for the last 18 years. I believe they have been in 10 super bowls and have won 5 of them. I call them the cardiac kids.

Fact: Patriots have proven that white guys can still excel and break records at wide receiver, returner, tight end and running back if given a chance. The Patriots are the only team that has even close to an appropriate balance of diversity.

I suspect that the Patriots will lose on Sunday.

Their dynasty is over.

Where’s your savior now, Krafty?

ESPN is a myth.
